Condo in great location. Great layout with separate bedroom for kids. Room needs major update with furniture. Living room couches and chair were dirty and very old. Arm rest were actually dark brown from being old and dirty. Couch was sunken and really not usable for comfort at all. Not comfortable after long day at beach.

Nail trimmings found on one of the beds, middle bedroom smelled like urine, fridge and freezer were not working upon arrival (was fixed the following day), downstairs toilet was not functioning properly, and was ghosted by host mid stay. Parking was also an issue due to significant road construction but that was not the host’s fault. Beach was close and within walking distance but will not be staying there again.

8.6/10 Excellent! (3,577 reviews)
This was a very pricey stay for us, and with the reviews and photos I thought it'd be worth it. It was not. First, it's an old LA Quinta.. not as charming as I hoped. The property is not well kept, the elevator near our room was out and the only working one had no air, the water in our room did not get hot, and the $20 per day for parking is a joke. Its a crowded lot in front of the property or a dirt lot next door. Internet was terrible and we had no service in our room. The breakfast buffet was what you would expect for a La Quinta. Most importantly, we paid EXTRA for a beach view and got a view of the pool, which was crowded and loud until midnight. Not to mention the live band that played until 1am. We were not expecting that and it was right outside the window. The only plus was the beach access, but the Marriot next door offered that PLUS more space PLUS Bar Louie for dining AND they had a way bigger pool. We were upset with our choice. The staff were nice once you made them engage with you. We locked ourselves out of our room and one girl laughed at us. That was great.
